I'm chuffed lately, I finally have Netflix, daughter put her account up and running on my tv to show me how it all works.So many movies to watch, I think I spend half hour looking at the titles of most of them!

One thing isn't on Netflix, a mini tv series (season 1 and season 2) of Timeless.So I bought them instead, was tired of missing it on tv due to being on at odd times, and then repeating some of the showsI already seen. What a farce that is.

What I like about Timeless, it's a time travelling show, but with true historical facts in the mix. I find myself checking google on my phoneabout the people and their achievements in history, and yes, it is all true and correct.

I think watching a show like time travelling, or any science fiction show, or comedy, as it tends to help one get the mind away from any stress.

The acting is great all round. Pope is terrifying too.

Yeah, great acting and great characters.

I found out yesterday that the girl who plays Frankie is an Australian, and she used to be in Neighbours.

Saw her in an amazing movie on Netflix (I think) where she speaks with her normal Australian accent.

The movie is 'Too Late'.

The scenes are all one take, and they run for about 20 minutes with no cuts. Amazing stuff.

"This series, loosely based Philip K. Dick's novel of the same name, takes a look at what the world might look like had the outcome of World War II turned out differently. In this dystopian scenario, the Axis powers won the war, leading to the United States being divided into three parts, an area controlled by the Japanese, a Nazi-controlled section, and a buffer zone between the two. Despite the oppression, a new hope emerges when films turn up that seem to show a different world. A woman believes the films contain the key to freedom and is determined to find their mysterious guardian."

I might check it out on the weekend.
